Toni Gonzaga on John Prats: ‘Ginagawan kami ng issue pero wala naman’

After her controversial slip-up on The Buzz, Toni Gonzaga refrained from further commenting about the rumored romance between her Happy Yipee Yehey co-hosts John Prats and Bianca Manalo. “I think we all have to move on,” she briefly stated in a recent interview with ABS-CBN reporters. Toni was also quick to assure everyone that she’s on good terms with John despite her unexpected revelation about his break up with Rachelle Ann Go. “Ginagawan kami ng issue pero wala naman.”

When asked if they have maintained the same closeness after all what happened, Toni merely said that they don’t often see each other in HYY to begin with. “Actually, hindi naman kami nagkakasama everyday sa studio kasi lagi siyang nasa labas. Other than that, nagkakasama kami sa team building, pero wala naman [yung ilangan]. I think masaya naman si Pratty (as John is fondly called by some of his colleagues) ngayon sa estado ng kanyang buhay. So siguro dun siya sa trabaho niya sa HYY naka-focus ngayon. Naghahanap siya ng bida everyday.”

Although it’s part of her job to provide juicy news to the viewers on The Buzz, some people say that her slip-up caused a few celebrities to keep their distance from her. As it is, they wouldn’t want to be the next headline on her showbiz-oriented talk show. To which Toni merely replied, “Ay hindi naman natin maiiwasan yung [iwasan ka dahil kilala kang host ng The Buzz]. Hindi naman kasi yun maiiwasan sa trabaho. Tsaka hindi naman talaga ako [yung super friendly na tao], so given na yun. Okay lang yung, wala akong problemadun.”
